Hi Hackers, I struggle with lldb to open vmcores written by a 13.1 arm.armv7 kernel. I'm using LLDB 16.0.6 (from devel/llvm16) as follow: $ uname -a FreeBSD sns-debug-armv7.jail.… 13.2-STABLE FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT #14 …-n258033-20b8fbf116f7: …/arm64.aarch64/sys/AMPERE arm $ sysctl hw.machine_arch hw.machine_arch: armv7 $ file vmcore.last kernel vmcore.last: FreeBSD kernel minidump for arm, little endian, version 2 kernel: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, EABI5 version 1 (FreeBSD), dynamically linked, interpreter /red/herring, BuildID[sha1]=b3d5fba55e096b9675ec3e374f73faa4c5c8df02, for FreeBSD 13.1, not stripped $ lldb16 -c vmcore.last kernel (lldb) target create "kernel" --core "vmcore.last" Core file '/home/stephaner/t/vmcore.last' (arm) was loaded. (lldb) bt error: Command requires a process which is currently stopped. (lldb) The previous commands are run from a jail built with freebsd-ci[1]: OSRELEASE=13.2-STABLE-02a7d117b5914dd8c42b8d98fe92faca381148bd TARGET=arm TARGET_ARCH=armv7 Despite looking at Moritz Systems'[2] blog regarding their (great) work I'm unable to tell if ARMv7 is supposed to be supported. The patches seems to be only about arm64, i386 and x86_64. (AFAIK their work landed somewhere in LLVM 15, that's why I'm using 16.) Any hint would be greatly appreciated :) [1] https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ci.git [2] https://www.moritz.systems/tags/lldb/ Regards, -- Stéphane Rochoy O: Stormshield
